Why go without an Overcoat, when we are offering them at all prices, from $5 upward ? Those
at that particular figure, are, of
course, plain to look at and plainly gotten up, but still they will protect from the cold, and contribute
materially to bodily comfort. If
yon can afford a still belter and more dressy garment, ask to sec those marked! 10, $15, and on tip. Our assortment in sizes and qualities is larger and more complete than yoo can find elsewhere, and the very best value is assured for whatever sum you decide to pay. BENJ. McGEE. . Buckwheat cakes and butter, and rich golden syrup on top of
them, and nice, fragrant coffee to drink with them, and a slice of fine sugar cured ham, and a fresh egg
or two to finish oft with, are enjoyable things these cold, frosty mornings. Hemp. Wilson's popular grocery store, in "Progress Block," is the place to visit if you want to get good things to eat and drink at low prices. Wilson always keens
gilt-edged butter.
Tobe Smith had manufactured expressly for bis Fancy liaziir and Jewelry Emporium, seven handsome new .style snow eases, that are well worth a visit' to
exnmine. Tbe supports are of wrought
iron, ana tne cases are entirely new ana novel. No country town in Indiana has such a store as this, and indeed few cities can bnat one as handsome or so heavily stocked. It is the wonder of the ago, and ought to bo seen by every one who visits tho town. as Bale after bale of domestics, car-load after car-load of boot and shoe boxes, aud fine dress goods in scores of heavy packages, h&ve been rolled into the spacious doors of the New York Store. This is a notable stock of goods, one that is sure to receive the attention of buyers in this and adjoining counties, throughout the Fall and Winter months. Nothing so extensive or so superbly magnificent, has ever before been seen in Bloomington, and as for prices, we challenge the trade to equal us in cheapness. Len. S. Field & Co.

My experititico in this county, and the work I have done will recommend mo in the future; so should you desire watches, clocks or jowelry repaired, call at my store, North side of the

Latest and Best is f he stock of Dry Goods and Fancy Goods, in Ladies' wear just received by Mobley, the Notion dealer, on the south side of the square. All that is new, stylish and desirable, in the Fancy Goods department, will be found at Mobicy's in profusion. The display of Hosiery is uncommonly handsome, and in Gloves and Mitts exquisite taste has been displayed. It is unnecessary to say that the proprietor of the "Golden Rule" can and does sell goods very lowhe pays no clerk hire aud his rent is reasonable. These advantages (low prices) he donates to customers. aa ai
Displays of fine jewelry, orna
mental clocks, standard silverware, first-class time-keeping watches,and everything in that line arc made from new arrivals at Tobu Smith's each week. In the matter of wedding presents you fiud a richer supply at Tobe Smith's than at any
other jewelry house this side of
Louisville or Cincinnati. It would
be impossible to enumerate a part of
I lie articles kept in bmitlrs establishment. It is a "Bazar" in all that the term implies, and everything made and sold (in the fancy line) can be found here. iei The "olb farmer corner" is
the headquarters of John K. Anderson & Co.. the Donular and suc
cessful Grocers. This firm has su
perior facilities for taking care of country produce, and gives that branch of the business particular attention. Numbering as customers some of the best farmers in tbe county, this erocerv store can rec
ommend its produce to consumers as at I . . a .
tne oest tnat is brought to town. A Fall stock is being put in that will please the natrons of this house.
Call and see the firm anyhow all
the good people are welcome.
Prohibition is the leading thought of the day, and I am in favor of Prohibition. I believo that tho mixing and sale of impure and poisonous liquors ought to be promptly prohibited. There aro perhaps not three families in twentj that do not keep whisky in the house for some real or fancied necessity, and no argument is needed to prove to thorn that this whisky, for which thoy nay a liberal price, and is dosed to tho children and women, should bo pure. I nm prepared to prove to all who call on mo that I keep whisky (and have a quart liconso just as your druggist has) that is unquestionably pure going direct from the distillery to the government warehouse, then to mo. I will show tbe Government stamps and receipts to prove this, and only ask that you will not poison yourself with the rectified stuff that is often sold. AUGUST KREUGEB.

Hemp. Wilson has purchased the Watts lots, opposite the new dwelling house of W. B. Baker, on west 6th utreet. Mr. Wilson will have plans perfected at once, and a contract will be let for the construction of a modern dwelling house, so that the builder may finish most of the woodwork this winter, and
be reidy to put up tbe building at
an early date in the bpnng. Mr. Ed. Stepp of Clear Creek raised and fatted seven hogs, which he sold lust week to Cron & Roseberry, for f5.90 per hundred. The
seven hogs averaged 408 J lbs. Tbe
Progress would esteem it a favor if
the friends of the paper would send
in items of this nature. The pub
lication of these facts has a tendency to stimulate other farmers to still greater efforts. Mm. Felix Dunn is visiting a ueice, in Worlhington, Greene co. Thu London Times speaks of "Pitt9burg, Philadelphia." No American would speak of "Liverpool, London' Judge Hord of Shelbyville, is expected in Bloomington this week, to try some venued cases. Beecher is coming around all right. In a recent Sunday night lecture lie remarkad that the psti.V
archs of the Old Testament would
not to-day, be admitted in good so
ciety. Pretty loud talk for a man
wbo has gone behind tbe curtain in Brooklyn. I. P. Hopewell has some fine Durham bull calves for cle. The county commissioners be
gun their December term on Mon
day last. Dunn & Co. are patting Rott's pond in order, and will have clear
spring water ice wben the freeze
comes. The "boys" will have opportunities for further acquaintance with Prosecutor Duncan, before his term of office expires, as he holds
that position till October next, Col. Taylor, now practicing law in Lafayette, was attending court last week. Miss Suda May, of Salem,Ind. well known in Bloomington, died at the residence of her father, Prof. W. W. May, on the 24th ult., of malnrif! fever. Deceased was a young lady of more than ordinary mental acquirements, aud a popular school teacher. The L., N. A. & C. night trains aro crowded. A letter sheet, envelop and postage stamp combined, all to be sold for three cents, is to be the next step of the Government toward meeting the demand tor a cheaper rate of postage. The people prefer to buy their own paper aud envelops, and only ask that the Go vernment carry their letters
for a reasonable sum. Instead of increasing the salaries of postmasters all over the country, let the rate of postage be reduced. No panic will be caused by the resignation of postmasters. An enormous bunch of grapes carefully enclosed in a glass case, was shown through Michigan, by a pedler, who had for sale sprouts from what he said was a vine of the same variety. The glass was accidentally broken one day, and the exhibit discovered lobe waxwork.
Kahn & Tannenbaum are now
receiving their stock of Fall goods
Quality better, prices lower, and a
bigger stock than ever.
Oppossums seem plentiful this
year, a number of the greasy varmints having recently been expos
ed to sale by some of tbe provision stores.
Progress Block is now occupied by six live, enterprising firms.
McConnel & Co. ct rry on an ex
tensive meat store- in the west 6th
street room ; Hemp. Wilson is the popular grocery and provision deal
er in tbe corner store room ; I.
Milt. Rogers (in the old post office
room) sells clothing for our citi-
zens's horses ; Ben. B. Smith, the veteran tinner, occupies tbe new room north of Rogers ; James B.
Allison, the artisl, occupies the
north tip-stairs rooms, while the
south rooms are tenanted by "The
Republican Progress" newspaper. Taken all in all, there are no more
clever business men in the town of
Bloomington than these. Hess and Lemon were opposing candidates for sherif!,in Marion county, and Hess, republican, was shown to have been elected by a majority ot twelve. Lemon, democrat, demanded a new count. It was had last week, and a careful count gave Hess a majority of 61 That Lemon got squeezed. Christmas only two weeks from next Monday, and we have had but
very little winter. Gold mines in Marion township, coal mines in Indian Creek, stone quarries in every township of the county, a new railroad passing "right through" Bloomington, and 0 .general "boom" in building and street improvements, leads the Progress prophet to predict a trebling of population by 1892. The case against Faulkner, for alledged violaton of the revenue laws, has been compromised on the basis of a small fine and costs. W. B. F. Treat., of the law firm of Treat & Saddler, gave a demonstration in circuit cjurt, last week, of his ability as a legal orator. The Louisville Plow Works have shown good judgment,tbrough
the managers.in employing Mr. Ed. Seward of this plane as a. traveling salesman, Mrs. Coffin has returned from a visit to her son (John) in Spencer. He is employed in a bedstead factory in that town. The Progress desires to learn something about that gravel road that was to be built from Clear Creek Church to Bloomington. It seems to us that resolutions wen; passed declaring that the road should be built this winter. Ben. McGce and wife were in
Spencer, last week, the guests of
John b. JJeem and lauiily. Charley Mobley was ransacking the wholesale houses of Louisville and Cincinnati, last week. Dressed fowls, tub oysters, and other table supplies, arc abundant, and prices reasonable. One of these fiae evenings some one will step into that grocery store cellar, west of the postoflire, aud a broken arm or leg will be the result. Lime. A. J. Kd wards (li mile southwest of ICIkttsville) hits a large qunntity of the best lime iu the Stale (unslackctl) for twenty-five cents a bushel.

About ten days ago, Drury J.
Hodges, who now resides in Win
ois, on a farm, went to a pen to
catch a colt. He placed a bridle
on the animal, and theu handed tbe rein to a boy who led it out. As
the colt passed Hodges it kicked
him just above the knee of the leg once before injured, breaking the bone and shattering the knee joint. The leg had,some twelve years ago,
been amputated above the ankle. The recent cucideut was of a more serious nature than was at first believed, and on Monday a week it
was found to be necessary to amputate the leg about six inches above
the knee. Hodges has hosts of
friends in Bloomington who will sympathize with him in his misfortune. In circuit court, State vs. Lov ell Cobb, charged with bcinc a par
ly to the Sinithville rape case, the
ijury failed to agree six and six.
Wm. Bailey, accidentally shot in
Stockwell's saloon, last winter, by
the City Marshal, Jake Buskirk,
was given a judgment for $550. - The supreme court decided
about a year ago, that the Vincen-
ues lottery was legal. Last week
the same court decided agaiml the
legality of this swindle. Now the
question naturally arises, "Does the law, or public opinion control these
decisioua?" As a conundrum, everybody will be compelled to "give
it up."
Chas. E. Coffiu has purchased ';
the "Center Block," on east Market street, India natwli-), in order to ac

The Entertainment at tlie U. P. Church, last Tuesday night, was t decided success, both uuancii lly. itnd in tbe way of entolaima4 Tbe program was not long, and the aadiciice seemed well pleased. The solo of Mr. Buskirk, and the quartette of Messrs. Miller,KeLjo,P;iulcy and Turner, were as good as ia ever given to an audience in this city. Tbe Trial of the apretle Paui, with Will.J. Bryan as Paul, O. E. Bradfute as Festua, Mis. Sallie Cherry as Bernicc, and Rob't Stewart as Agrippa, presented an historic scene with vivid nets and force. The earnestness of the great speech of Paul enforces it.s own tiruth upon the King and Fsstus. The Magic Lantern,- maniolited by J. H. Louden, entertained the children and old people too, with some interesting pictures on Piilrsthte and London. People will begin to thinkathat when the "young people of the U. P. Church advertise an entertainments sxNnothiog will be given well worth going to. The College young people ob
served Thanksgiving season with an unusual amount of festivity.
Tbe Kappa Alpha Tbeta&gave a
shect-and-pilww-ca8e masqneirade at I. Milt Rogers's. It was lots of fun to do and say ridiculous
things with your unknown partner,
and the boys and girls caught each other in many laughable uecrs(cs.w Bat tbe nasks disappeared when oysters were announced. The Kap
pa Kj ppa Gam mas, another pop nla r
tidies' fraternity, gave a very elegant reception to their geat lessen
friends, at the residence of Mrs. Helen Orchard, the same evening. The richness of the repast, the jjay-
cty and ease of entertainment man
ifested by the young ladies, tho
style with which they know to well
how to receive, made the Kappa reception a society event of no mean
mportance. The ability to enjoy
themselves, among these yonng fa. dies, and to make others do like
wise, is immense. The only regret
of the evening was among tho 30or unfortunate boys who had an invitation to both banquet, ami could only go to one. If they went
to one they would miss tlie others
uure, and the regret would almost
isouuterbalance the pleasure. What jould they do? The girls should irrange their receptions to avoid a a
:tny Bucn connict in uis noyo
minds.
On last Thursday afternoon,
Frank Frayue, the expert marks
man, snot ami killed Miss Asinu
Von Behren, during a performanra
in the Coliseum theater, Cincinnati!.
The tragedy occurred during the 4th
act of Si. Slocum, when Frayue undertakes to shoot an apple off the head of tbe actress. The gun it i.
claimed, was defective, and the bar
rel dropping, the unfortunate lady
was shot through the brain.
In an interview, last week, iu Jefferson City jail, Frank Jaases spoke in tcrtn3 of denunciation of R. J. IugrrsoII, who, James said was denouncing the Bible. It mode James's blood run cold to bear that a man who entertained such view would be countenanced and Usteasd to. Frankcy is entirely too good for this world ' he ought to tie promptly hung, so that. Tike Guttcau, he might "go to meet his Lordy." Captain Henry, just reotovtd from the U. S. Marabalsiiip of the District of Colombia, Appears to think that a blow has been atruc!., a great wrong suffered by the people, wben he is dismissed, and proposes to 'fight' Mr. Henry evidently wears magnifying glasses, fur in the 52,000,000 of pemilc who go to make op this body putitSe, we are free to assert that none bat the Marshal's deputies fbel that thoy have been w rouged by his removal. The office was en easy, good salaried one for Henry, but the fact that he held it did not sssfet iu meeting the Progress paper bill. Attention is directed to Vha prospectus of the Indianapolis Journal iu another column. Tbe J ournal is a news-paper, in the- fulUt sense of the term, am as such, wields a healthy influence in Indiana and Illinois. The Journal is not blanket y, like Cbwago papers, nor padded like some f those published in Cincinnati, but is compact, fresh, and iucisive. It is handsomely printed, each department has its spwial features, and, as- it whole, the Journal is equal to any daily in the west. Alex. Henry died oo awViariay morning, aged about 60 year. Ueorg Benckert, the "Boss' lktkcr, will Ik' compelled to enlarge his table. Another young girl arrived at his house the other evening and has expressed af oud-voit-cd dotcrminrtion jo stay.
